Id say when you die, you better take some change for the soda machine with ya, cause Its gonna be hot where your goin

Yeah but all my coal burner buddies will be there and although being seared by perditions flames, I'm still going to search out a good source of Anthracite. The LL staff will all be there so servicing will be easy.

We will have some liquor and beer to take away the dryness. Actually I do not have organ donor on my DL. But my will and my family know my wishes that I would be an organ donor if need be. ( and if there is anything worth salvaging ) But I leave the decision up to my family the way it should be, not some piece of government issued plastic.

I hope the little girl gets what she needs and gets an extension on life. I was listening on the radio someone in the med profession called in and was saying that a typical lung can save 2 people, because the little girl would only get the lower section and someone else larger would get the upper section. So 1 tragedy can actually save more than one person. CF sounds like a terrible disease that I could not wish on anyone. Especially a child.

How about Jews? Many of them believe believe they have to leave life with all the parts they came in with.

Will the "King of the Jews" damn them to suffer for eternity for following His law?

I'm just glad I'm a libertarian and not one of those "Moral Majority" types. I'd hate to think I was going to hell because I don't feel any "obligation" to the collective.

Let me give you a tip about that one.... AHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAA, I slay myself.

True. I guess you got me on that one.

But that's not really critical to resurrection I guess. It seems their concern is that an all powerful being who can raise them from the dead can't whip up a new kidney if they give their old one away.

Well here's some good news for some, not so good for my B-in-L & family but what's done is done. There are a bunch of organs getting ready as we speak as he donated everything useable so I'm guessing it's everything but the heart & no Jpete there is no money changing hands, it's just the type of man he was & what he believed so I hope everything goes well with whoever gets them, you got them from a good guy.

That's great to hear.

Now if we had a few million more like him, we'd have this problem licked.

But I'm curious to know how allowing a person to sell their property would have prevented your BIL from giving his away?

Jpete, I realize you just can't get the concept of doing good out of the kindness of ones heart. I find it odd however that you accuse me (someone that is & has been a registered donor) of disliking anyone with money or as you put it more money than I have when you express the willingness to sell your (hopefully)excess body organs to the highest bidder. Believe it or not you have that right & I would think that if you do some searching you may find the place that will do it & probably even cover airfare for yourself & some family members above your asking price. You may be right sell them now while you (hopefully) can enjoy the profits & that way if something unexpected should happen you will have already enjoyed your profit. There may be a whole new industry to open up, cross matching & selling body parts for fun & profit, kind of a modern day grave robber.If one passes suddenly as in this case it takes a lot of strain off of the ones left behind & also gives(I know, another word you don't understand) the gift of life to some waiting on the lists that perhaps would perhaps have no means of funding the purchase of a life giving organ.
